A total personality transformational program.

A recent article in ‘The Times of India’ raises a very important question:

Is academic excellence a true measure of one's success in life?

It further goes on to say:

High Marks May Not Guarantee Success!!!!!!!

It is so because………… (please read on)

It is because we need many other qualitiesbesides high academic performance to besuccessful. Qualities like a person’s totalpersonality, communication skills, positiveattitude, time management & generaloutlook towards life in fact play moreimportant role.

However, the teaching process in our schools& colleges focuses on preparing students forscoring high marks.

Hence, most of the students when theyenter corporate world lack vital employability skills.

Views of some Indian

employers onCommunication

skillsof entry level job seekers!

“To get a corporate job with a multinational

company you need to communicate effectively,

write reports & put together presentations.

Tragically, majority of candidates lack fluency & polish. They are poor in grammar, including even those who have

studied in English medium Schools.

They are unable to construct grammatically

correct sentences. They also grapple with pace, tone & pronunciation.”

HR Head of an IT Industry

“Today’s youth have a pathetic command

over the English Language & very

weak delivery system. Hence; their

communication is wasted.

In fact, we reject 90% of those who apply for voice-based positions

due to

poor

communication skills.

In addition to poor

grammar today’s youth have

grave problems with listening,

comprehending, assimilating & responding.

We face problems. Our employees need to express themselves

well.

We don’t provide language training.

We expect them to have strong communication

skills to start with.

Workshop leader;

I am surprised at the number of managers who complain that nobody

who works for them can write

a simple paragraph.

A senior recruiter at Citigroup :

“If I have two similar

candidates in front of me,

every time

I’ll hire the one who can write

better.”

Every time!
